Dave Chappelle: Sticks & Stones (2019)

Dave Chappelle: Sticks & Stones (2019). Watched this to see if Dave could cleanse my funny senses after watching Bill Burr.

I read an article written about this show on how the author and I guess some others didn't like his "shock" comedy regarding a few topics like Michael Jackson's child molestation accusers or the #MeToo movement.

C'mon people. It's comedy. And if it's something Dave truly believes, well this is America and it's his fucking right and privilege to have his own fucking opinions. Just like others have the right to fucking feel differently.

As Dave says, "You people watching on Netflix, remember you clicked on my face!" Meaning they made the choice to watch. And for the audience at the venue, they made the choice to purchase a ticket to watch someone who they should be familiar with regarding his comedic style.

FINAL VERDICT: I recommend it. It's probably not as funny as some of his other shows but it's still worth a watch. He makes some valid points for his comedic opinions which I'm sure at least 40% or maybe more of people in attendance or watching on Netflix have similar points. Anyway, take his show as comedic opinions, laugh or don't laugh, and then move on.

Bill Burr: Paper Tiger (2019)

Bill Burr: Paper Tiger (2019). Was trying to find a good stand-up comedy to watch and Netflix had this as a recommendation. I think I remember previewing one or two of Bill Burr's previous shows but I don't think I found it too entertaining as I don't remember the name or anything from the show. However, I thought I'd give him a(nother) chance with this new special.

After starting and painfully completing this special, I must say that I just don't think Bill Burr is very funny. I pushed through this one thinking it would get better as I didn't have much else to do at the time of viewing. It had its moments even if they were very few and far between. It was just kind of painful to maintain my focus and interest.

I know people that think he is funny. I just haven't found him as such. Anyway...

FINAL VERDICT: For me it's a pass. If you already like him, then you'll probably like this one. Again there were moments of funny but I think they could have been combined into a twenty-minute (generously measured) highlight reel.
